Belle really took me back to that time period and engrossed me in the history. The setting was fascinating, the plot was riveting, and the characters were well-developed and lovable (or lovably hatable for some, I suppose). To this day, I still love her characters. The only down side to this is, I loved them so much that when they ceased to be the main characters in later books, I was a bit disappointed. I missed them! I would highly recommend this book for anyone who enjoys romance or historical fiction.
